If anything can be said about our friends on the Left, it is this: No matter how lousy the idea they hatch, no matter how ridiculous or dangerous to our hard-won constitutional freedoms, they never give up.

As if to prove that point, Sen. Dianne Feinstein and at least 23 of her liberal pals in the Senate have introduced an even sillier version of her laughably ineffective 10-year federal "assault weapon" ban that was allowed to quietly die in 2004. In the decade it was in effect, it wreaked havoc on then-President Bill Clinton and Democrats — ask Al Gore — and stands as a cautionary tale about political suicide and gun bans.

The FBI was flooded Friday with more than 200,000 background check requests for gun purchases, setting a new single day record, the bureau reported Saturday. In all, the FBI fielded 203,086 requests on Black Friday, up from the previous single-day highs of 185,713 last year and 185,345 in 2015. The two previous records also were recorded on Black Friday.

The season for hunting deer with firearms has begun in Maryland. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources said in a statement that the two-week season runs from Saturday through Dec. 9. It allows hunters to shoot sika and white-tailed deer and helps the state manage the deer population. For the first time this year, hunters will be allowed to use certain air guns.

Organizers of a year-end charity gun raffle in southern New Mexico say they are better off after separating from United Way Worldwide, which objected to the annual firearms sell-off. Alamogordo-based Thrive in Southern New Mexico describes itself as the leading fundraising organization for local nonprofits in a rural, two-county area.

More than 100 handguns were stolen from a storage facility in the Sylmar area, authorities said Saturday. The theft was reported about 8 a.m. from Storage Etc. at 12087 Lopez Canyon Rd., Lt. DiMarkus Smith of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station said.

Three people were robbed at gunpoint early Saturday morning in the South Loop, Chicago police said. A man and two women were getting into a car when a black SUV bumped into the back of their vehicle just before 1 a.m., according to authorities. When they got out of the car, four men got out of the SUV and aimed guns at them, demanding that they get on the ground. The victims’ wallets, cell phones, and keys were stolen, and the four men then fled the scene in the SUV.

A small sporting goods store in Pennsylvania is accusing Facebook of showing “tremendous bias” after a recent ad it posted to the social media site, one for American flags, was taken down and their advertising abilities stripped altogether. The Sportsman’s Shop, located in East Earl, told the Daily Caller that Facebook recently deleted an advertisement promoting an American flag sale at their store. At first, they were perplexed. Then they discovered Facebook had completely disabled the company’s marketing abilities.

Doug Jones, the Democratic candidate in next month’s Alabama Senate special election against Republican Judge Roy Moore, previously defended a man with strong ties to the Ku Klux Klan and Holocaust deniers, FOX News has revealed. Jones has boasted of the fact he successfully prosecuted two KKK members with links to the 1963 16th Street Baptist Church bombing that killed four black children and injured many more.

Hundreds of legislative employees can now carry handguns at the Indiana Statehouse and adjacent state office buildings, but with some limitations. Lawmakers passed a measure this year, allowing those who work for the House, Senate, Legislative Services Agency and Lobby Registration Commission to bring guns to work with a valid state permit. The measure affects more than 470 employees.

Hunters across New Jersey are making final preparations for the state's next black bear hunt, which also may be the last one the state holds for some time. Protesters gather not far from a bear hunt check-in station at the Whittingham Wildlife Management Area in Fredon, N.J., in December 2014. While a formal decision won't be made until next year, the hunt's future seemed to be sealed on election night, when Democrat Phil Murphy - who has called for a moratorium on the hunts - won the gubernatorial race.

Some 550,000 Pennsylvania hunters will take to state parkland and farmer-owned private woods Monday as the season begins for deer-hunting with guns, said Bryan Burhans, executive director of the state Game Commission. "It's going to be a good year for hunters, maybe one of the best in the last 20 years," Burhans said. "There are a lot of bucks out there. The chances to take a trophy buck this year are better than ever."

As much as we enjoy shooting, we’re not sure we’d still be at it but for reloading. In the early years, we dove in mainly to save money. Standing on the shoulders of comparative shooting giants—that is to say, loads we learned from the likes of Bill Wilson and Ed Brown—even our early attempts soon rivaled the best factory ammo we could buy. Though we’ve seen the last of metals prices that made $7 per hundred match-quality pistol ammo possible, those .45 ACPs shot much better than we were regularly able to do. How did we know? The promise of “free ammo” worked on a few truly superb pistoleers, and they shot them cheerfully for us in confirmation.

Hunting guide Mike Clark normally has more than 20 clients lined up each fall for trips deep into Wyoming’s western wilderness to shoot mule deer, prized by hunters for their size and impressive antlers. But unusually cold weather and heavy snowfall that blanketed much of the Western U.S. last winter killed off many young deer. And that prompted wildlife officials throughout the Rocky Mountain states to take measures such as reducing the number of hunting permits to try to help devastated wildlife populations rebound.

Mark McLean recalls how his friends were hunting in the Wenas Wildlife Area when they found themselves running for cover as semiautomatic gunfire came screaming in their direction. It’s just not a safe place, McLean recently told a state-appointed advisory group seeking solutions.

Fifty-four years after an assassin’s bullets killed President John F. Kennedy in Dallas – an incident that arguably launched the liberal jihad against the Second Amendment fueled five years later by the murder of his brother, Robert – gun control remains a divisive political subject.

The ads leap out from the pages of almost any gun magazine: Soldiers wearing greasepaint and camouflage wield military-style rifles depicted as essential to the American way of life. A promotional spot by the Mossberg brand boasts of weapons "engineered to the specs of freedom and independence."

Devin Patrick Kelley, a 26-year-old Texan, killed 26 people before apparently taking his own earlier this month during church services at Sutherland Springs Baptist Church in Texas. News reports indicate the slaughter was the result of a heated “domestic situation.”

Connecticut lawmakers are pushing for new legislation to help distinguish fake guns from real guns. The new law would require toymakers to place bright markers on all toy guns. Sen. Richard Blumenthal says police have killed 86 people carrying toy guns. He says some toy guns made to look like real guns are tragedies waiting to happen.

A gun control group founded by former U.S. Rep. Gabby Giffords asked two web hosting companies on Friday to shut down websites selling parts and machines that help make untraceable homemade firearms known as “ghost guns.” The Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence asked the providers that host GhostGunner.net and GhostGuns.com to disable the websites for violating the hosting companies’ terms of service.

A man has been arrested for allegedly stealing the weapons of an off-duty officer injured by gunfire and the dead suspect, Detroit police announced Saturday.

Lloyd Love, 38, was taken into custody "without incident" on Tuesday, Nov. 21 in Southfield, according to Detroit police. A habitual offender, he is charged with theft and firearm crimes and held on a $500,000 bond.

Love is accused of taking their weapons and fleeing.
